Effects of Electromagnetic Waves of Mobile Phone Towers on Lipid profile, Liver functions and Blood Electrolytes of Human Beings

In present study, some biochemical parameters were accomplished to assess the effects of electromagnetic waves of cellular phone towers on human beings. Four Iraqi governorates were chosen to collect human blood samples, those are: Basra, Thiqar, Maisan and Najaf. Total of four hundreds (400) blood samples were collected from volunteer men whose ages were ranging from 30 – 40 years old as 100 samples from each governorate. From each governorate; fifty samples were collected randomly from people who have dwelt at least for one year in houses very close to -not more 200 miters far- mobile phone towers and from different areas, and those people called as (Exposed). In addition, another fifty blood samples were collected randomly from people who dwelt in houses very far from the mobile phone towers to be as a control and they were called as (Not exposed). The biochemical results showed a significant increase in total serum cholesterol (TSCH), triglycerides (TGs), low density lipoprotein (LDL), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), transaminases (AST , ALT), and blood calcium (Ca++) of the exposed people in all of the four governorates with a significant increase in high density lipoprotein (HDL) of all governorates except that of Maisan governorate where it decreased but not significantly in the exposed group, while blood potassium (K+) of the exposed people showed significant increase in Thiqar and Maisan governorates and not significant increase in Basra and Najaf governorates as compared to the parameters of non exposed people in all governorates at (P?0.05).
